Shaw and Smith will look at TikTok’s audience, functions and content, how it can work for brands, the psychology behind the platform and the steps involved when it comes to trying it out.
Meanwhile, New Young Consulting’s CEO Bronwyn White will present the Mumbrella Masterclass: Marketing To Seniors.
The session will explore how brands can get more out of targeting the time-rich, cashed up demographic. White’s consultancy is a market research company specialising in over-55s lifestyle and travel.
